[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 2032260, member: 28388"] Maybe, but I would assume it's hard-coded into the software. There are streets on a route I used to run where I would have a daily resi delivery then drive 250 feet, back up into the last driveway then reverse direction due to the size of the truck and the grade of the driveways on the street. I always came up as 0 BFE on that silly report so I know it's not 500. On my current city route I have BFEs everyday and not a damn is given because they understand I get blocked in on streets and have to back up or I have to pull right up to the bumper of the car in front of me in order to park, then back after the stop or else I'd be blocking the whole city street. On industrial routes I used to run I'd regularly have half a dozen BFEs everyday backing from dock to dock. On those routes they establish what's normal for the route then flip out if you go over the average. In the 3 centers I've worked in, they only gave me a hard time about resi BFEs and I haven't heard a single word in 2 years. [/QUOTE]
